Happy Sweetest Day!

Ah.... another Hallmark holiday...

I didn't really care much about it until my hubby surprised me with these after he got out of dialysis:







I am blessed to have such a wonderful and sweet life partner - and I would say this with or without these "surprise" roses.

Black The Salon: 60 second spot

I've been so busy lately and haven't been able to update my blog as regularly as I would like to. This is one of the reasons why I've been "away". Check it out!

Max Azria: Bat Girl

I visited the Max Azria/Herve Leger boutique this weekend with a friend of mine to check out the new fall pieces. I however ended up lured into the Max Azria Fall Collection instead. Why? Because everything was either black, lace, and/or drapey. Of course I was naturally attracted to that. I ended up trying on a few pieces from the collection even though I know I don't really need anything right now. One thing I fell in love with was this simple top with bat-like/bow-like shoulders.







Thanks to my friend, Lisa for taking photos of me wearing it. I liked how it fit and how awesome the shoulder detail made me feel. I think it would be perfect paired with my Rick Owens mermaid skirt or even the black body con dress I was wearing underneath the top when I tried it on. Maybe even with black skinny jeans perhaps or even leggings to make me look like a super hero sausage.  I did, however, walk out of the store without it. I didn't want to make any "spur of the moment" purchases since I usually think things over before I buy clothes.

Now the question is: Should I? Or shouldn't I?

Perfect Cider Mill Attire: Jillian Lewis

It's officially fall and the weather has been quite chilly: perfect time to visit the cider mill for some hot apple cider and doughnuts. I have however given up eating doughnuts and drinking anything aside from water and coffee so it's going to be a tough season for me. I do however still want to visit the cider mill and walk around the woods ala Little Red Riding Hood.

It would have to be Little Grey Riding Hood in my case. Here's something I found online c/o Jillian Lewis. If I didn't have a surplus of coats and jackets, I would snatch these in a second!

I also stumbled upon these leggings. I really like the details, the shapes, and the paneling used here.
